## About this course

This workshop focuses on the collaboration between designers and AI.

## What you'll learn

- Designing patterns with minimal intervention that AI understands and then enhances through its interpretation. 

- Critically thinking about how much AI influence we want in our designs. 

- Creating a negotiable space between parametric designs and the AI tool.

- Learning the design language and workflow that AI understands, and identifying where AI’s limitations arise. 

- Understanding how small changes in the workflow can drastically alter the output. 

- Imagining designs that were not intended while creating designs in digital modeling space. 

- Developing an iterative design process where the entire design doesn't need to be fully modeled.

## FAQ

### What software programs and AI tools will I use during this workshop?
You will use Rhinoceros 3D, Grasshopper 3D, ComfyUI, Midjourney, Luma AI, and Stable Diffusion.

### What alternatives are available if I cannot run ComfyUI locally on my computer?
If local installation isn't possible, participants can use **RunComfy**, a cloud platform supporting Stable Diffusion and ControlNet with pay-per-use server time.

### How are parametric patterns used in combination with AI tools?
You will create minimal 3D parametric base patterns in Rhino/Grasshopper, then use ComfyUI to refine, and transform them into architectural proposals.

### Are software installations included during the live class time?
Software setup is not included in the session, and participants are expected to have all necessary programs installed beforehand.

### What is the format and duration of this workshop?
This is a single 5-hour live-recorded session comprising 7 lessons that cover parametric pattern setup, AI-driven style transfer, and ComfyUI visualization logic.
